I know many here like Bruce, but what is yer fave movie of his....
My 1st martial arts cinema experience was 30+ years ago-------and it was a double feature; Fists of Fury and The Chinese Connection.
Fists of Fury will always hold a special place in my heart. ;)
A tough one for me as I love Fist Of Fury but had to vote for Enter The Dragon as it was the first Bruce Lee movie I saw, has a great cast and characters and endless quotable lines. And what a soundtrack!
Has to be Enter the Dragon. "I call it the art of fighting without fighting". Classic.
Enter The Dragon without a doubt.
Modernized and changed the entire action cinema as we know it.
Also when I hear the theme music I immediately feel like kicking ass :D
Definitely Enter the Dragon. Great memories watching this.
I also like Game of Death.
I got to say Game of Death and Enter the Dragon. I like game of death better, but enter the dragon is cool also.

I concur....but love the scene with the Student contemplating "The moon and all of it's Glory..."
My fave line from Enter the Dragon- "That's very impressive,but board dont hit back." (not sure if the first part is dead on)
That line reminds me of the movie Karate Kid II, where Daniel and Miyagi are looking at the poster of Saito breaking a tree in half.
Daniel:" Wow...can you do that?"
Mr.Miyagi: "Dont know...never been attacked by tree."
Is anyone else as fond of Circle of Iron (aka The Silent Flute) as I am? This was to be Bruce Lee's last project as he co-wrote the screenplay. He died before production, & like the Kung Fu series, David Carradine played the intended Bruce Lee role. The story reflects Lee's Zen philosophy, check it out if you've never seen this.

Thanks for the heads up on this Lundy. I've known about the Silent Flute, but did not know it was ever made

It's on the Blue Underground label. This is my favorite martial arts movie, & I can only imagine how better it wd be if Bruce Lee was in it.
I seen that a long time ago...rented it at :ACTIII videostore for 99 cents in the 90s...
pretty cool movie, kinda slow at times...

The only reason I watched the Green Hornet
I only like the ending to game of death, I also enjoy enter the dragon and fist of fury, and I thought way of the dragon was decent
Love them all..
Toss up between Fist of Fury and Enter the Dragon.
Game of Death and Game of Death II are to Bruce Lee what Plan 9 From Outer Space is to Bela Lugosi, I mean they're so badly put together they bearly count as movies, let alone Bruce Lee Movies. I mean he's only in them through the use of stock footage from Big Boss, Fist of Fury, Way of the Dragon and Enter the Dragon, test footage, news footage (they had the nerve to use Lee's actual funeral as stock footage) and body doubles, which are spliced in really badly I mean there's a scene early in Game of Death I where you can tell that it's simply Bruce Lee's face matted onto another actor's body and through out the rest of the film his face is never shown, he's either shot from behind, his face covered with shadows, or when his face is shown he's wearing either really big sun glasses or a motorcycle helmet (something mirrored in "Brucesplotation" films, yeah watch one and you'll notice the main actor is always wearing sunglasses) until the end when the real Bruce Lee finally shows up (despite everyone in the audience probably knowing he was dead) and in Game of Death II they only use about 10 minutes of stock footage from Enter the Dragon. So here's a question how did Game of Death I and II make it into the Bruce Lee Ultimate Collection but not Enter the Dragon (It took me 4 months to find a copy of Enter the Dragon after I got the Ultimate Collection)
